Can

The sensation of her lips ... still lingering on mine. Sweet. Sensual.Moist. Lips that are calling for pleasure. 48 hours thinking of her lips. Now they are here, before my eyes, in front of me. I look at them. I touch them, and right now, this time it's for real. No more fantasy. No more rehearsal. Cağrıis somewhere in the shadows, in front of us, filming. During the screen testing, everything went very fast. This time, there is a whole team with us, scrutinizing our every move, dissecting each of the emotion swe will convey.

Demet is in my arms, shivering under my fingers that hold her in a sweet embrace and an ephemeral kiss. I would like to stay this way indefinitely. Losing myself in her perfume, right where neck and shoulder meet. Nipping on this tender and appetizing skin and forget everything else.

In the script, my character, Can Divit must be immediately captivated by this mysterious woman. At first, he believes he is kissing his girlfriend, rendered blind by the darkness, and as all his other senses awaken, he can feel under his fingers the electricity and the instant alchemy between them. He breathes in a delicious scent that he will never forget. And I, at this very moment, I do not even need to try and act an emotion alien to me because I am completely merging with my character, enraptured by my partner.

She stiffens abruptly and reluctantly I let her escape. A few seconds while she runs away ...

"Cut!"

Cağrı's voice brings me back to reality.

"It was perfect! Frankly, great job! We won't even have to double it!"

Cağrı smiles at me. He looks really impressed.

I am divided between the pride of our success and the desire to hold her back again. She was very professional: cutting off our embrace at the right moment, following the logical line of the scenario to the letter.

I come out of the dark room to find Demet already surrounded by two makeup artists touching up her foundation. Cağrı is in my footsteps, patting me on the back, and then raising his thumbs to congratulate Demet.

I approach her, grinning and confident, and she smiles back at me. It feels like the sun is shining inside the room.

"It's great! We can be proud of ourselves, Can! We won't have to do it again

"It's great! We can be proud of ourselves, Can! We won't have to do it again."

I love her enthusiasm so much. Happy to be successful, but also and particularly happy to not kiss me again today. I can't feel as enthusiastic. Which scene will allow me to enjoy the softness of her lips again? I sigh quite loudly.

"Are you alright Can?"

"Yes,I am. I'm just a little tired... filming, moving in... I'm not sleeping much these days..."

"I can help you if you want? If Cağrı releases us early because of our good work, I'll come and help empty out your boxes and at the same time we can rehearse tomorrow's scenes?"
